Beautiful sky. Do you know what that plant is? Got a similar one popping up in the gardens, haven’t put the internet ’lens’ yet to identify.

Have a great day, give Shadow a pet from me.

Please let me know if you find it out. Maybe get a picture of yours. Hope a great too for you. I'll be more than happy to pet Shadow for you!

If you crush a bit, it smells like pineapple. It’s generally quite a tiny thing and grows in gravelly driveways here in Maine. It’s not a garden pest.

Matricaria discoidea, commonly known as pineappleweed, wild chamomile, disc mayweed, and rayless mayweed, is an annual plant native to North America and/or northern Asia, introduced to Europe where it grows as a common herb of fields, gardens, and roadsides. It is in the daisy family Asteraceae.
